FIA Formula E 2016-2017 Monaco


The recent Monaco ePrix at this season's FIA Formula E Championship has been given quite a drama as the Buemi-Di Grassi rivalry stirred things up in this intense race held at the Southern France, which is now longer than it was in the past for more added thrills for the spectators.

Under cover of that intense rivalry comes a dramatic collision between  NextEV NIO's Nelson Piquet Jr. and TECHEETAH's Jean-Eric Vergne where intense overtaking between the two caused Vergne's car to collide into the Tech-Pro barriers.

Although, Lucas di Grassi of the ABT Schaeffler Audi team took advantage of his pole position following his impressive qualifying round skills, Renault e.dams' Sebastien Buemi's decisive use of his FanBoost lead the two rivals to a dramatic last-minute clash until the winner is ultimately named at the end of this lengthy battle. Mahindra's Nick Heidfeld placed 3rd, NextEV NIO's Nelson Piquet Jr.'s in 4th place, and Venturi's Maro Engel placed 5th respectively.

Highlights:



Onto the standings, Buemi's in the lead with 104 points while Di Grassi's in 2nd place with 89 points, and Prost's in 3rd place with 48 points.

The next race is on Paris, France, on the 20th of May.
